About this deal

This game is good for people who like a challenge and have a competitive spirit! It’s got many benefits from playing and is also just really fun. It’s also a great game if you’re on the go because it’s such a small box that it’s really easy to transport Are there any learning or benefits to the game? As I said above, I’ve yet to play a game that has bested me. The blurb on the box says that each of the over 62,000 games has a solution. Sometimes more than one. Of all the games I’ve played, which must be over 100 by now, only once did all the players come up with exactly the same solution. And that was the game that took the longest to win, so we all agreed that was likely the only solution. Simple is often better, it has been said. And The Genius Square, or Genius Square as I’ve always called, is on the face of it a very simple game. But don’t let that fool you into thinking it’s easy or without challenge. I’ve had some games last over 20 minutes and have beaten some in less time than it took me to set up the board. I’ve never had a game beat me yet, although with over 62,000 variations of this puzzle to play maybe the one that will defeat me is lurking in my future. Casual gamer or die hard puzzler, this game has something for anyone looking to try something new. Setup Genius Square is recommended to be played by 1-2 people and is suitable for children and adults of the ages 6 and older. Genius Square is manufactured by “the Happy Puzzle Company”. Although this isn’t noted on the box, we find it’s usually a very fast game and only takes a few minutes. What is inside the board game?

On paper, over 62,000 games sounds like a lot. In practice I would say there are actually more than that. Unless you are gifted with a photographic memory, I very much doubt you will remember if you have played a variation of the game before. Let alone remember the solution you came up with. So you could argue this game has unlimited replayability. Certainly each game will present you with a fresh challenge. The board itself is a 6x6 grid; the numbers along the top and letters on the left hand side corresponding to the combinations of letters and numbers on the dice. To start each game you roll all seven dice and using those results, place the seven wooden pegs onto the board. For example, if you rolled A1, A2, B4, C6, E1 and F1, then you would place them on those squares. It’s very important if playing with someone else to make sure your grids match each other, so take a second or two to do so. Once that’s done, you are ready to play. Gameplay Fun For Family - The genius square game is perfect for ages 6 and up, get the family together to play the genius square game.

As I hinted at above, Genius Square doesn’t take long to set up, no matter if you are playing with someone or on your own. Technically with two players the game suggests you go head to head to see who can solve the puzzle first. You can play against the game itself, something I will go into more detail when we come to gameplay. However you play, the setup is the same. Each player takes one of the Genius Square Boards, the nine multicoloured geometric shapes, the six wooden pegs and the half dozen six sided dice. These dice will determine the layout of the puzzle board. The Genius Collection The fivemulti-award-winning games that have made The Happy Puzzle Company a success across the world!
